If that mortaility rate is common, it would mean there are ~10x (or more) infected in the world...

This sort-of coincides with the large asymptomatic reports. So what do we do from here on? Such numbers would surely raise the famous r0 infection rate, and it means this is far more contagious than reported/believed.

r0 can stay the same, it can just means that the epidemic "took off" earlier than what our tests show.
